Message: <blockquote data-quote="Beechnut" data-source="post: 2750738" data-attributes="member: 591655"><p>Hello everyone I've just been diagnosed as prediabetic and given advice from my GP to follow a healthy diet based on a print out he gave me from Patient UK. The puzzling thing is the diet is heavy on starchy cards and low in far but further down in the article it says that high carb diets are responsible for higher death rates and that all forms of fat including saturated fat are responsible for fewer deaths. I'm totally baffled by this advice it's so contradictory. Having gone back to the references given in the article I find that they are actually advising a change in advice for patients but it's obviously not happening. I'm sure others have experienced this I wondered if you could say whether you followed the high carb low fat advice or not. Thank you.</p></blockquote><p></p>
